Innovation is worshipped as progress, but its rewards are seldom shared equally.
Tech #clusters thrive while others wither; green tech demands materials extracted at human cost.
Check the intro to the @RegionalStudies issue on the dark side of #innovation. doi.org/10.1080/00343404.202…

Regional value chains promise inclusive growth in the Global South, but poor governance often strangles potential.
#Namibia’s Zambezi region has entrepreneurs & demand but rigid structures block progress, according @CarolinHulke et al in @RegionalStudies.

For decades, #RegionalPolicy promised harmony: growth, equity, sustainability—all achievable at once.
No longer.
As @ugofratesi argues in his new @RegionalStudies paper, we are entering an era of trade-offs. The challenge is not optimisation but choice. doi.org/10.1080/00343404.202…

Regional #development strategies should identify a place's unique potential—not merely echo its neighbours, say @KornelPylak et al. in @RegionalStudies.
Imitating others erodes impact.
#Innovation thrives on place-sensitive strategies, not on imitation.

Fascinating spatial infographic on the typologies of 'left behindness' from Andy Pike et al in @RegStud:
Thank you @rodriguez_pose The 'Many Shades' of #LeftBehind regions perfectly captures the complexity at work here.
The term 'left-behind' conceals many shades.
Europe’s vulnerable regions differ: some bear deindustrialisation scars, others face demographic collapse, rural areas grapple with isolation.
As @sanne_velthuis et al. argue, policy must embrace this complexity
